Personalized Tumblers

If you are looking for my post about being on the Skittles guest design team, click HERE.


Today I am sharing another vinyl creation with you that is perfect for gift giving!
 I created these personalized tumblers for the teacher aids in my son's class.  I used SVG Attic's  Chevron Alphabet Uppercase for the monogram.  I used a font I had on my computer to type their names.  Then I added circles of random sizes in both black and white all around the tumbler.
 The vinyl I used is permanent (outdoor) vinyl, but it does have a matte finish.  Normally permanent vinyl has a shiny finish, but I wanted to clarify that I did use the permanent vinyl so it would for sure stick.  I purchased this vinyl from HERE.
These tumblers are perfect gifts for Valentine's Day, Teacher Appreciation, birthdays, Christmas, Thank You,  etc.  The list goes on and on!  Make them for your kids' teachers and fill them with markers and candy like I did.  They are sure to be a hit!

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Circuit Board Valentine Card

I have a brother who loves all things technology related and works in IT.  I immediately thought of him when I saw this card from SVG Attic's Love Letters kit.
 It was extremely simple to create!  I added liquid pearl dots in the ends of the white areas to resemble the soldering on real circuit boards.  I attached the USB drive with Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

I Totally Dig You Valentine!

Good morning!  Today I wanted to share these fun Valentine treats with you.
 I created a holder for the Biggie Candy Chutes and used the sweet Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine for embellishing.  Click HERE for the tutorial I followed to make the holder.  The only change I made to the pattern was to cut a 1" square hole in the top instead of punching a hole.

 The sentiment was a free printable and I added the bow of Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine.
 Here is a closeup of the Mini Wood Scoop tied on with the Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine.

Here is what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:
Valentine Cherry Cupcake Trendy Twine - Red & Pink Bakers Twine
